Hello from Down Under
I've ordered a C8 but in Australia, we are waiting for the 2022 model release before we can order for production.
Hopefully, I will get mine in early 2022.
Cheers
Marty

Congrats...I ordered mine last summer and it's arriving next month!
Our son lives in Alice Springs and we visit every year...including Adelaide, Sydney, Great Barrier reef towns, etc. I've never seen a vette in the Down Under; you may be the first, Mate!
Cheers,
